10 Must-Have Toys for Serious Shaider Collectors!

In my previous Shaider posts, I mentioned several toys you can collect to start your Shaider collection.

You can check my Shaider posts here:
4 Shaider Figures You Can Get Today!
Shaider Blue Hawk by Bandai - Toy Review!

But today I am going to list down the 10-must-have toys for the serious Shaider Collectors.

If you are a Shaider fan and is a toy collector, these are the toys that needs to be in your collection.

I am not going to list down the price since it varies, but I am going to provide the rarity based on my personal experience.

I will update this post when I get new information on where to get the items below.

LETS CHECK THE LIST...

1. BLUE HAWK 
Rarity: 3 out of 5. The Shaider Blue Hawk figure often comes out of the market once or twice a year, but the figure is highly collected so it won't stay for sale for a long time.

2. VAVILOS DX
Rarity: 2 out of 5. The Vavilos DX is the best quality Vavilos toy you can get. It transforms to a ship, robot and gun just like in the show. It is more common to be available in the market than the Blue Hawk because it is pricier.

3. GODAIKIN VAVILOS ST
Rarity: 2 out of 5. The Vavilos ST version is smaller  than the Vavilos DX but is still comparable to the Vavilos in the Show. The figure has only 2 forms, ship and robot mode. The figure is also cheaper than the Vavilos DX.

If you just want to have a Vavilos in your collection, you can get this for less the price than the DX version.

This is how the first 3 figures will compare in size if put side-by-side.

4. SHAIAN TANK
Rarity: 5 out of 5. Since the Shaian tank was released last 1984, there are very few good condition and complete figures are out there. They rarely come out for sale even without the box, and I only saw 1 or 2 in the last four years. If it comes out, it is quickly get bought.

The Shaian Tank figure is 2 vehicles in 1, and is much cooler in my opinion than the Vavilos ship itself.

You can separate the plane that Annie flies, and Shaider rides in the tank.

5. SHAIDER by S.H. Figuarts
Rarity: 1 out of 5. The Shaider Figuarts figure has great metal detail and articulation. This figure is easily obtainable in the market since it was only released in 2012.

7. SHAIDER DIECAST POPY 1984
Rarity: 4 out of 5. This diecast figure rarely comes out of the market, maybe once a year, and sometimes stays long for sale since it is pricier.

It was made in the 1980s so it is hard to get a mint condition figure of this.
